Introducing...Lola Sigri Dusha!

Our baby girl is here and is so perfect. She has the longest fingers, beautiful dark hair, cutest button nose and a brother that adores her. Life is good!

Just born!

Eyes are open, right after delivery.

Teague with his "Big Brother" shirt...so proud!

Going home with a 2 year old who is more interested in his sister than cooperating with the camera!

Lola Sigri Dusha arrived at 8:24 a.m. weighing in at 7 lbs, 14.5 oz. and 22 inches long. She was a much easier delivery than Teague, that's putting it lightly! Short story: I was into see my OB and left there at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday with no changes from the past 3 weeks. She had grown a bit, so we were going to hold off on an induction until the next week. At 1:30 a.m. I woke with bearable contractions 3 minutes apart. They stayed consistently 3 minutes apart but became unbelievably unbearable around 5am. My parents arrived at 6:20 a.m. (with Ryan and I waiting in the car in the driveway for them), checked into the hospital by 6:30 a.m., was dilated to an 8, pushing at 8:15 a.m. and baby Lola arrived at 8:24 a.m.! 29 hours later we are home as a table of 4 now! She is named after my Grandma Sigri who immigrated to the US from Norway when she was just 21 years old. Grandma Sigri was a strong, adventurous, independent, intelligent, loving, and beautiful woman - everything we hope our daughter will become.

More to come, but bonding as a family for now! Thanks for the well wishes thus far!
